Title: Speed boat from Foam board Post by: coolpratheesh on November 04, 2012, 11:22:35 AM This is my second try at building a boat. I had all the help from our beloved boat expert Roopeshji. I even visited him a few time at his place to finish off the final stages of assembly.
Following is a short photo log of my build. I have use 3 mm foam board for the hull and 5 mm board for the top, keel and the transom. Title: Re: Speed boat from Foam board Post by: coolpratheesh on November 04, 2012, 11:23:30 AM some of the photos of the finished boat
